openRC

OpenRC is a dependency-based init system that works with the system-provided init program

Service scripts are located at /etc/init.d.

The following commands are available to manage the init system:

Basics:

rc-update add <service> <runlevel>

rc-update del <service> <runlevel>

rc-service <service> <start stop restart>
